MIAMI – Heat center Shaquille O’Neal went through a full practice yesterday, which would indicate he’ll play against the Nets in Game 1 of the playoffs today.

But O’Neal played it close to the vest, saying his availability depended on how his bruised right thigh felt when he awoke this morning.

“Feeling pretty good. The true test is going to be how I feel when I wake up in the morning. I’ve been getting double treatments every day. I’ve been getting a lot of rest. So I look forward to getting back out there with the guys,” O’Neal told reporters. “Like I said, the true test will be when I wake up.”

O’Neal said he felt to be about 80 or 85 percent “so hopefully the progression goes up” and “I’ll most likely be out there unless I come in and I can’t walk.”

Most Nets say they harbor no ill feelings toward Alonzo Mourning, who eventually got his wish and returned to Miami. Mourning, who trashed the Nets for their offseason moves then ripped the roster, was traded to Toronto, refused to report, was given a $10 million buyout, then was signed by Miami.

” ‘Zo is a great person. I learned a lot from him. Good teammate to have,” Jason Collins said. “It never got to us as players. We all knew his situation. He felt it was time for him to move on and he did. He did what he felt was necessary. He put actions into movement so he could get where he wanted.

Jason Kidd said, “He is a friend, and for the time being he is on the other side. The friendship never ends. You don’t look at what-ifs. In this business, things change so fast [and] we were able to get Vince. Everything worked out.”

Lawrence Frank said, “Everyone’s past [the way he left]. Right now we don’t want to deter the focus away from what’s really important.”
